    Photoshop experts in here please.

    I'm slicing up a web gallery in photoshop and no matter what I do I get a 1 pixel extra space to the right that is driving me nuts. I've changed my slice settings on the export to every configuration I can come up with. I even re-sliced the page into just 2 big slices and I still got it. I know, I shouldn't rely on photoshop to slice it for me but it has given me good results in the past. By saying slice it for me I don't mean auto slice. I manually create the slices, I just let photoshop convert it to html for me. Any help would be greatly appreciated as I am on the verge of breaking everything in sight. Thanks in advance for your advice.

    if you're saving as html, the only way is to fix the html yourself. otherwise, save as css nand you won't have any problem

        An image spacer is what I'm trying to avoid. It automatically puts one in. I want it to be html instead of css. The thing is I've been fine up until now. It just started doing this today. I've made a decent amount of things in photshop and never had the problem before.

          You'll have to manually replace it then. Photoshop is quick and dirty, not much you can do about it.

                it will be html anyway, I meant divs instead of tables, just "save for web", "html + images", then "custom", then choose divs and generate classes, ID or inline, what is better for you. About this happening just now, it's impossible unless you were using PS5 since it's a known glitch in Photoshop since version 7, although they don't recognize it as glitch, but how it's meant to be instead. So most probably you didn't notice it before, but that's the way PS works. However, it's weird that it's happening with 2 slices only, since PS used that space to compensate the weird tables that will happen when you auto slice. all in all, if it's just 2 slices, save it anyway you want and build the table yourself using the generated images, it will take 1000 times less time than the time you already spent asking for help

                btw, you'll have 1 px on the right and 1px on the bottom just in case you didn't see it

                    Who the fuck uses Photoshop to code html?

                    You are SUPPOSED to use the slice tool to create the slices save out the images and then create the tables yourself.

                      photoshop spits it out in html when you render the psd into slices...

                      i guess technically it goes through imageready.... you are aware of this arent you?

                      of course after that you go and use an editor to do the rest of your coding... but an initial layout it "coded" through "photoshop"

                        Yeah, it's optional tho. I always save the images only and then code the layout from scratch. Every designer has his own ways tho

                            Are you sure the guides are EXACTLY where they need to be? Disable 'snapping' ( view->snap ) and zoom way in on the guide and make absolutely sure it's where it's supposed to be. You might have nudged a layer one pixel past where it is supposed to be or not fully erased a line of pixels past the edge of a design element or the pixel might be past the view of the canvas etc etc etc....
